If you can get to Sturbridge, Massachusetts next week, and if you love vintage textiles and clothing then you NEED to know about this one.
The good people at August Auctions will be holding their annual Catalog Auction on Tuesday and their amazing Discovery Auction the next day.
The Discovery Auction sounds like such fun: At Discovery, museum boxes are emptied onto tables. Bidders move any single item that they “discover” to the bid table and open the bidding at $25. After all the items on the bid table are auctioned, everything remaining on the first table is sold as one lot. It’s that simple!
Personally I won't be there, but I look forward to hearing all about it from a friend who'll be taking a detour from Brimfield, and if you manage to get to the sale, then I'd love to know what you come home with.
